New Lip Nautic 3 re-edition: 39mm, LJP G100, around 1k.

IMHO a very pleasant surprise at the crossroads of the Vulcain Skindiver form factor and the Enicar Ops' fun colors, while still being unique and true to the original 😀

Don’t blame the designer (since the guy is probably already dead)…
Just blame today's Swatch Group marketeers… 😉

I agree, I blame the person ticking the box to say it was a good idea to release now.

Don't you think the moldy vintage crowds will love this one though? All things old equals awesome in their opinion

Such is very true. Just adds to my disdain for the thing tbh. 😀

BTW, quite similar to the Heuer Kentucky LCD

Also fairly similar to the Speedmaster Professional LCD prototypes



BTW, it seems nobody likes this new PRX. Have not seen a single positive impression anywhere

I knew I shouldn't have put that second photo... 😉

That said, not sure how well these R184 electromagnetic movements behave day-in day-out.

I give you credit for watching that entire video of 100 watches. I just jumped to the top 10. Nice to see the Monaco is up there, it often is in these types of rankings. More often than not, the Submariner comes out on top over the Speedy.

Looks like Swatch have turned their eyes to Blancpain for the next bio-ceramic model, could be interesting is automatic - https://oracleoftime.com/swatch-tease-collaboration-blancpain/
Is going to be totally unobtainable I would guess. Queues out the shops again….

Very interested to see it however. I like the FF
I don't know if lightning will strike twice, the Fifty Fathoms isn't as famous as the Moon Watch. It might be hard to get in the beginning, but I doubt there'll be the craziness of the MoonSwatch. Regardless, I'm looking forward to the release. It seems a Seamaster x Swatch could be next on the on the far horizon as well.

Some interesting speculation from Monochrome. https://monochrome-watches.com/pred...fty-fathoms-collaboration-sistem51-automatic/

I used FF (fast forward preview) 😉

I’m not surprised with the Monaco landing into the Top10 but TAG Heuer Carrera at 71?? Probably because there are so many iterations of the Carrera that it’s hard to picture its basic design concept. I know it’s a personal list and they’re probably a bit biased and so am I 😉

Rolex - Submariner
Omega - Speedmaster
TAG Heuer - Monaco (or Carrera)

No Aquaracer in the list also 😕
